Both “Solstice: Blue” and “Solstice: Green” two sample libraries for Kontakt that combine multiple elements to produce an overall sound that is always evolving and never repetitive.

They’re perfect for creating:

atonal soundscapes

tonal pads

sound design & more!

Both instruments already come packed with an extensive collection of presets that will provide hours of inspiration, however if you’re feeling really adventurous, you can put your OWN sounds into Solstice and use it’s powerful interface and effects engine to transform them into something that is uniquely yours!

With this incredible amount of customisation on offer, there are lots of ways to use “Solstice: Blue” in the creative process. Use it to create a tonal background (or sometimes melody) that is constantly evolving and can serve as a beautiful base to lay the rest of a cue on, or import your own sounds, crank up the effects and use it as an incredibly unique and inspirational sound design tool!

Solstice: Green – The Calming Natural Alternative to Blue

“Solstice: Green” is the peaceful sister to “Solstice: Blue”, featuring the sounds of nature and beautiful landscapes that meet with 24 new calming core sounds.

Green’s core sounds (24 in total) include:

Female and Male vocals

Cello performances

Blown pipes and flutes

Guitar fades and e-bowing

Bowed bowls

Glass and stringed instruments

Plus a few others. These are the tonal anchors in each patch.

The X and Y sounds in Green range from natural things like:

Thunderstorms

Waterfalls

Jungle ambience

Streams

Wind

The ocean…

To more musical things like:

Random harps

Guitar and cello harmonics

Wind chimes

Prepared piano

Blown bottles and more.

The key here is that nearly all of these sounds are ORGANIC in nature – real instruments, voices, soundscapes, etc… organic sounds add nuances that don’t exist in synths.

The Heart of the Sound – FX, Filters & Randomization!

At the heart of the Solstice instruments lie their carefully chosen array of effects and filters… and the wholly unique Master Randomization button. The individual effects and sound manipulation tools included are as follows:

Space – A convolution reverb

Orbit – Chorus, Flanger and phasers

Echo – Delays

Dirt – Multiple Distortions

ADSR – Fine control over the attack, decay, sustain and release of a patch.

LFO – rate and modulation controls

Filter – high/low/band pass, Q control

Although you are free to tweak any of the effects in any manner you choose, whether that be subtly or to the extreme (including using the 8 individual randomization buttons assigned to each one), the real fun starts when you hit that RedMaster Randomization button! This will completely randomize every single effects and filter parameter… you just never know what result you might get!

Listen to How It Was Used to Score a TV Show

“I was hired to score A&E’s “Extreme Builds” and was given very specific scoring direction to make a beautiful, sparse and sound design based compositions for the show. Solstice Blue and Green were the constant elements that enveloped the sonic backgrounds of nearly every cue.

They added a beautiful dimension that made each piece unique where I could put nearly any traditional instruments on top of these tonal drone-like beds and make them expand to a whole new level of sonic excellence.

Lighter cues like “Pride and Joy” and “Letting Go” start out solely with Solstice and then build with simple traditional instruments creating a beautiful result. Solstice’s constant random expanse provided a ethereal and custom soundscapes to fill the empty spaces and add emotional gravity to each piece.

Dramatic cues like “In A Hole,” “Drowning” and “Danger” allowed Solstice to play a bigger role in providing the moods to compose around. Finally, in the dramatic cues “Betrayal,” “Stunned” and “Bells,” I used both Solstice and ZapZorn Elements together to create a palette sonic sound design based tonal wonder – the expansive backgrounds laid down with Solstice coupled with the wide percussive tonal elements the ZapZorn Elements gave each cue a wonderfully unique character to each cue.

In creating ZapZorn Composer Tools, I wanted to make sonically excellent instruments that were unique and useful as a composer.These cues just begin to scratch the surface of what having Solstice Blue, Solstice Green and ZapZorn Elements in you arsenal can offer to expand your compositions.”

What People Think About 70% off “The Solstice Bundle” by Zapzorn

"Their own plethora of well crafted presets aside, even Zapzorn don’t know what sounds you’re going to end up with when using SOLSTICE: Blue – and that’s the very power of this library and sound design tool."

Film and Game Composers

Music Industry Blog

"From breathtakingly breathing pads to swirling or squeaking atmospheres to special effects, all sorts of interesting sounds can be produced. Thanks to the randomizer functions, the results are always surprising!"

Been unable to properly load the libraries in Kontakt 5.6.5 full. I keep thinking it’s my fault, but I can’t find any support from Zapzorn to verify my steps. Facebook, Twitter, Support ticket, there is nobody home at this point. One week in. I love what George Gabriel does with the libraries, the demos sound great, but this amazing deal leaves me unsatisfied if I can’t use them. I will try to start over the unzip process and hopefully find my way. I wish I could rate it better. But seemingly nobody is on the ship at this moment.
